I'm looking at buying a bike and accoutrements (yes! I get a chance to use that word!) after having not ridden a bike for ten years. I'm looking at the Giant FCR3.
Apart from a helmet, gloves and a pair of shorts, what do I need? What might be useful? After looking at bikes the other day, apparently I'm better built for men's frames. Any changes I should consider? (My boyfriend's a cyclist, but since all his cycling buddies are male, he's not always helpful.)
(Small words, please. I know next to nothing about bikes!)
